What is a Uniform Deposit?
How does it work?
Once the deposit has been paid, a fully-paid uniform deposit is registered in the Club database. As long as your daughter’s uniform is returned to the Club in good condition at the end of the Fall/Winter Season, your deposit is rolled-over for credit against the following season’s uniform deposit. That is, as long as the full uniform is returned to the Club the credit will roll over to the subsequent season. Where a uniform is not returned, the Club database will be adjusted to require another uniform deposit the ensuing season. Should your daughter leave the Club and the uniform has been returned in good condition, the Club will issue a reimbursement cheque.
Why is a credit system being used instead of post-dated cheques?
In this day and age of electronic tools, the database approach is much more efficient and negates the continual problems associated with post-dated cheque handling and inventorying. Additionally, the incidence of NSF post-dated cheques has increased steadily over the years.
